A parkour park will pop up on a Manhattan rooftop this spring, and all are welcome to jump, dance and play. The festival called MOVE NYC includes workshops for kids and adults on parkour, acro-yoga, calisthenics, aerial silks and more hosted by renowned athletes from across the country.
The rooftop festival will be held atop New Design High School (350 Grand St.) on May 26-28. It's designed to celebrate movement and raise money for the high school's physical education program.
No prior experience with parkour is necessary to participate in any of the sessions, and all ages are welcome. For those who prefer to sit back and watch, stop by on Friday evening for live music or anytime to find a spot in the shade and enjoy the skyline view.
